Commander Ye suppressed his impulse and changed the subject.
"I've read your report on developing the economy of the Third Regiment. I can see you have a lot of ideas, and you've been doing a great job these days."
Shen Annian was very happy to be recognized by the big boss.
His approval of me means that there will be fewer obstacles in my future actions.
Now when Peng Hanmei saw her, she looked like she wanted to eat her, and she was quite worried that she would do something bad to her.
If Commander Ye supported her, she would be less dangerous.
"Thank you, Commander Ye. I will continue to work hard."
Commander Ye looked at her with satisfaction, his eyes rather complicated.
This child has been well educated. He is neither arrogant nor impetuous, and is very graceful and outstanding.
Shen Annian was stunned when she saw his gaze, and Commander Ye was a little strange.
He had a strange look in his eyes.
Is he always like this?
"Commander Ye, you asked me to come here. Is there anything else?"
"It's nothing, I just want to understand your thinking."
It seems that he really is not here for Father Shen, which makes Shen Anyan completely relieved.
"Commander Ye, can I make a suggestion?"
"Go ahead."
"This is just a small-scale operation now. If we want to really develop it, we still have to recruit talents from outside.
Currently, the factory is small and can meet supply needs by relying solely on manual labor, but if the factory is to grow, it still has to rely on machinery.
Our current financial resources are not enough to support us in introducing production lines, so we can only rely on human research and invention.
Agriculture is also a major priority here, and its development cannot be separated from technology.
If we had talents in agriculture, we could find ways to make crops more productive.
Now the scale of the farm is growing, and we also plan to produce canned food in the future, which requires technical support.
It would be great if Commander Ye could introduce some talented people to us."
Commander Ye looked at her steadily and said, "You, young comrade, are quite ambitious."
Shen Anyian smiled and said, “Commander Ye, even if I have ambitions, I want to make the army better.”
"Don't you have any selfish motives at all?"
As soon as these words came out, Brigade Commander Zhou looked at Shen Annian nervously, afraid that she would say something wrong.
He was a little confused about Commander Ye's attitude. His attitude today was a little strange.
He attributed Master Ye's puzzling attitude to his concern for the identity of Shen An Nian's parents and his attempt to test Shen An Nian.
This requires Shen Annian to be extra careful and not say the wrong thing.
The smile on Shen An Nian's face grew even wider, "If I say that I have no selfish motives at all, I guess you wouldn't believe me, but I do have selfish motives.
I came here with my lover, and my first impression of Jing County was that it was too poor.
Arriving at the Third Regiment’s camp, this feeling became even stronger. My first meal there was cabbage and potatoes, and no oil…”
Brigade Commander Zhou couldn't help but cough twice, signaling her to stop talking.
Commander Ye did ask her what she thought, but she was too honest. She should have kept it to herself, so why did she say it out loud?
Commander Ye didn't look at him, but looked at Shen Anyan, "Go on."
"Life here is too hard. I don't have much strength. If I work in the fields like other military wives, I probably won't even have enough to eat.
If this place develops well and more jobs are created, I won't have to work in the fields anymore, and my living standards will also improve.
By then I can eat better and my life will be more convenient. That’s my selfish wish.”
This girl's wish is really simple and unpretentious.
Commander Ye could see that she was speaking the truth.
It was because these were sincere words that touched him.
It's obvious that this is a child who has been spoiled at home.
Only those who have been pampered since childhood will not have a strong utilitarian mentality.
"I believe you are telling the truth."
"Can you help me find someone?"
"I'll give it a try."
Upon hearing this, the little girl's joy was beyond words.
Teacher Ye's brows softened. "I already know what you want. If there's nothing else, you can go back first."
"Thank you, Commander Ye."
Ye Wensheng saw Shen Anyian was about to leave, and turned to look at Master Ye anxiously.
I haven't even figured out anything yet, why did Dad let him go?
Commander Ye gave him a look that urged him to be patient. Ye Wensheng had no choice but to watch Shen Anyan leave.
After Shen Anyian left, Division Commander Ye and Brigade Commander Zhou learned some information and then left.
After getting in the car, Ye Wensheng asked him, "Dad, are we leaving just like that? We haven't even figured out anything yet."
"What else do you want to ask?"
"Of course we have to ask her for information, otherwise our trip would be in vain."
"She's very wary of her adoptive parents. Even if you ask her, you might not be able to find out anything, and it might even make her feel disgusted.
We are not sure yet that she is your younger sister, so we need to investigate this matter slowly."
"I'll check."
He desperately wanted to know whether Shen An Nian had anything to do with him.
The first time he saw Shen An Nian, he inexplicably felt a sense of intimacy in his heart, which made him want to protect her.
This feeling was strange, but he didn't reject it at all.
If she was really his sister, and his family found his lost sister and resolved his mother's knot in her heart, he would also gain a sister.
